BJ Park Min Jung Apologizes For Outting CNBLUE’s Lee Jonghyun

BJ Park Min Jung who is most famous from AfreecaTV has apologized for her Instagram story that outed CNBLUE‘s Lee Jonghyun. She revealed the direct messages that she got from his account that told her he was a fan and thought her belly was “cute“.

Soon after her thousands of followers saw her post, many criticized Lee Jonghyun for continuing to reach out to girls after he was discovered to have taken and watched hidden sex cams that they took of women.

Lee Jonghyun has since deleted his Instagram page and announced that he will be leaving CNBLUE for good.

BJ Park Min Jung then posted an apology to her Instagram where she apologized for revealing a personal message. She called her actions “careless” but explained why she wanted to out him.

I first got a DM from CNBLUE’s Lee Jonghyun sometime last week. I knew he was taking a hiatus for reflection so I just ignored it. When I got a DM for the second time, I honestly felt disgusted.

I worried that he was sending these messages to other women too so I wanted to stop it.

안녕하세요 박민정입니다. 어제 밤에 올린 스토리로 인해 많은 논란을 일으킨 점 죄송합니다. 우선 씨엔블루 이종현님께 저번주쯤 첫번째 다이렉트가 왔었는데, 자숙중이신걸로 알고 그냥 무시했습니다. 그 다음 또 다이렉트가 오길래 솔직한 마음으로는 조금 불쾌감을 느꼈습니다. 다른 여성분들께도 메세지를 하고 안좋은 일이 생길까봐 막고자 하는 마음도 있었습니다. 이러한 이유로 스토리를 올리게 되었는데, 개인적인 대화내용을 공개한 점에 대해서는 정말 죄송하다는 말씀을 드리고 싶습니다. 현재 스토리는 내린 상태이고 앞으로 이런 경솔한 행동을 하지 않도록 조심하겠습니다. 죄송합니다.

Hello, this is Park Min Jung. I’m sorry for causing a lot of controversy with the story that I uploaded last night.

I first got a DM from CNBLUE’s Lee Jonghyun sometime last week. I knew he was taking a hiatus for reflection so I just ignored it. When I got a DM for the second time, I honestly felt disgusted. I worried that he was sending these messages to other women too so I wanted to stop it.

I uploaded the story for these kinds of reasons but I would like to sincerely apologize for revealing a personal message. I have taken down the story and I will be more careful so that I don’t do anything careless. I’m sorry.
